Recent Reviews in Central Milton Keynes

Horwood House Hotel

8/10 Good

"Nice setting / location. A little disappointed the rooms don’t have AC .. it was 30c during our stay and the supplied room fans were ineffective in cooling the overheated room down. Also, £660 for 2 nights stay is double standard charge….. capitalising on the Moto GP at Silverstone …."

Novotel Milton Keynes

8/10 Good

"Nice hotel, great staff but the rooms need an upgrade on the IT Side. Only 2 plug sockets on the worktop, (there were 3 of us in a family room) and none by the beds & no USB charger points anywhere in the room at all. They still have the old dial up sockets we used about 15 years ago to get online via your landline phone line. Completely out of date & useless in this day and age. Get it upgraded guys…"

Hotel La Tour

10/10 Excellent

"Everything was superb from start to finish. Luckily, my room was ready as we came a little bit early so they let us in which was really nice. The rooms were spacious, very clean and everything you need. I was on the seventh floor and the reviews were superb. Breakfast in the morning slightly limited, but they did make me my poached eggs and vegetarian sausages separately, which was good. I didn’t use the gym it’s small with some eco-friendly looking machines but it’s good for what it needs to be if you want a quick workout. Only downside was I ordered a tuna sandwich for room Service which was pretty disappointing as it was £17 for a very thin layer of tuna in service I would definitely stay again when in Milton Keynes."
